A little about me

My name is Ignacio (Nacho) Mellado. I am an engineer who enjoys making machines smarter. For more than 10 years, I have been working with American companies on perception for general-purpose robots, industrial and space robots, smartphones and cloud services. Before that, I made drones and cars drive autonomously with onboard cameras and sensors.

Compute performance and efficiency are skyrocketing. The computer vision field is making great strides thanks to the advances in machine learning. This unlocks an unprecedented opportunity to automate processes and tasks that have been traditionally too difficult for machines.

In the coming years, we are going to see an increase in everyday objects becoming aware of the world around them; reasoning, learning, and adapting to the user. I want to play a part in that transformation of the tool into active helper.

I am open to opportunities

Do you have a machine perception problem? Either if you are looking for just guidance, or for someone who can take care of the whole project, please contact me if you think I can help.
